Airbnb Covers Property Damage
If you've been interested in the free accommodation model of Airbnb but didn't want to take the risk of having others stay at your place, you might like that Airbnb now covers property damage of up to $1 million for hosts at no additional cost. Even if you don't want to be a host, this might just make you feel better about using the company for your own travels. Be sure to read the fine print to see exactly what it covers, and of course it doesn't make any statement as to the character of the people you choose to deal with through the site so you still need to be careful.
